What is the star in the constellation Cassiopeia that could be a sun?

I read somewhere Cassiopeia has a star that is similar to our own sun. What is this star called? Thank you!|||You mean a typical main sequence star? Eta Cassiopeiae contains a G0V main sequence star, of the same spectral class as our own star, but it is not alone: It is orbited by a orange dwarf star.|||Okay, I have just spent about a half an hour researching the stars of Cassiopeia and I don't see anything that would stand out as being very sun-like. I'll bet you're talking about Tau Ceti in the constellation of Cetus.
